Daddy's got a new toy!

We did it. We finally did it! No more test drives. No more endless hours on Craigslist. Here's a picture of the newest addition to the family:


We tested two more trucks last night before we finally decided this was the one. We had actually driven this truck a couple of weeks ago, but we needed to see all of the other hunks of junk that are out there before we realized it was a deal. Dan is super excited and therefore so am I.

Maggie was a real trooper through the whole process. The afternoon started right after her nap, around 3. After the 2nd test drive it was dinner time, so we hit the Pizza Hut in London Ohio. She thought that was a real treat, as did I! We don't go out to eat very often, but we have quite a bit recently, just because when number 2 comes, we aren't sure we will ever leave the house again. Anyway, we then headed to pick up this beauty. We arrived at the dealership around 7:45pm. Maggie's bedtime is 8. Yes, we were pushing our luck. She was awesome. As we nailed down all the details of the purchase she wandered around the showroom putting sticky fingerprints on all of the showroom cars. The sales guys didn't mind a bit. They thought she was just the cutest. I knew that already, but I know I can be biased. Then just before 9pm we pulled out of the car lot to head home with the new truck. Right now, she is still asleep. She didn't get to bed until almost 9:30pm but it seemed like she had just as much fun as Dan and I did. She loves riding in trucks!

So, tonight, Dan wants to put her car seat in it and drive around Columbus showing it off to friends and family. Sounds like fun to me. Who knows...if you live in Columbus, a big blue truck might show up in your driveway sometime tonight.......
